Stepping Stones Nursery School emphasizes free play and connecting with the magic of nature. We are committed to outdoor play every day and developed a Nature Explore Certified Outdoor Classroom to achieve this mission. Stepping Stones was the first daycare in Chicago to achieve Nature Explore Certification for its outdoor space. We chose to pursue Nature Explore certification because it falls in line with our daily mission to connect children with nature, and nourish a lifelong appreciation and love of the outdoors. In 2015, Stepping Stones was awarded the 'Innovative Entrepreneur' Award from the Women's Business Development Center for our unique outdoor space. Contact us today to learn more about our locations in Logan Square and Lincoln Square.
